I had mentioned the 800 to BenH and he suspected a problem The thing is that I was unable to boot. It hangs at the start at : smp_core99_kick_cpu done Maybe was it a misconfiguration in the OpenFirmware : when I list the value of the vars in OF, i've got two vars : betty_cpu0 passed betty_cpu1 ...... Oops, I can't log today on the computer, I don't remember the second value :-( which was different from the first. I test it on 2 G4 with exactly the same hardware configuration. By the way, MacOS 9.2 was highly unstable : it often hangs on netscape.
